In Class 12 last week we have been writing our own myths. These have been based on North American stories and we put our own spin on them. We have created stories like how the Rhino got a horn and how the elephant got a trunk.
Mr Padley enjoyed finding out 'How the Baboon got a red bottom' and 'How the Unicorn got wings'

We have been learning about keeping safe when using the internet as part of our E-safety day. We looked at a story about Smartie the Penguin and his new tablet. We thought about the problems that Smartie had whilst playing online including pop up adverts, websites for older children and cyber bullying and what he should do in these situations.
The children made sock puppets of Smartie, film reels of the events in the story and information posters to help other children make the right choices when using the internet.
Below are some examples of the fantastic work they have done which will be added to our new E-Safety display in the computer room.

E-safety
Children are getting online more than ever before which is incredibly positive for their learning and development. However, they are also exposed to certain dangers if the internet is used inappropriately.
To reduce the number of risks, it’s essential that children know how to keep themselves safe online and what to do when something isn’t quite right.

Have a look at the pictures to see what we have made!
In maths this week we have been learning about 2D shapes, we have been naming them and describing their properties.
